About this app

Anxiety doesn’t wait for a therapy appointment. The Helpy AI assistant is there when you need support.

The app brings together evidence-based methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), along with guided exercises and programs, a thought journal, and an AI assistant built around CBT.

What’s inside?

HELPY AI ASSISTANT
Tell Helpy what’s going on and what’s bothering you. Trained in CBT methods, the AI assistant helps you work through anxious thoughts, understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, ask yourself the right questions, and choose an appropriate technique.

THOUGHT JOURNAL
Write down situations, thoughts, and emotions. Helpy can help you analyze your entries using CBT principles, spot cognitive distortions, look at the situation from a different perspective, and suggest relevant exercises.

EXERCISES FOR ANXIETY
Evidence-based techniques that help reduce tension, interrupt spiraling thoughts, and bring your attention back to the present moment.

EXERCISES FOR STRESS AND OVERWHELM
Practical exercises to reduce tension, recover from overload, and manage stress.

SUPPORT FOR PANIC ATTACKS
Step-by-step techniques that can help you cope with panic symptoms, reduce their intensity, and gradually regain a sense of control.

EXERCISES FOR MOTIVATION AND ENERGY
Helps you take action when you don’t feel like doing anything, break difficult tasks into manageable steps, and gradually return to your usual activities.

EXERCISES FOR ADAPTING TO CHANGE
Helps you better tolerate uncertainty, manage anxiety around change, and build psychological flexibility.

CBT without a Therapist may be a good fit for you if you:

• experience anxiety, stress, or panic attacks
• feel burned out or emotionally overwhelmed
• are currently doing CBT, DBT, or ACT and want more practice between sessions
